If you don't know what Milia are, they're these white spots around the eyes or mouth that are apparently caused by dead skin growing over a protein or some shit like that.

The point being that I have them, and though they apparently aren't dangerous, they bug the shit out of me. Mostly because I have gorgeous eyes, and these white spots ruin my favorite facial feature :v. So, naturally I Googled that shit up, and got about 20 pages of people contradicting each other.

Person A says the only way to rid yourself is using lazers. Person B says the lazers are the most effective treatment, but there are other ways that aren't revealed. Person C tells me to apply a warm cloth to spotted area once a day for a vague amount of time. And person D tells me to eat wheat.

So after all of this, I decided I would post here asking if anyone has had similar problems, and if so, know how I can rid myself of these eye-sores (pun ohohohohohohohoh).

Help is obviously appreciated.

Oh, that's what they're called. I squeeze them carefully until they're gone. It hurts, but it's effective.

Grandma says burning them off with the tip of a needle also works.

I usually have white areas around my mouth, but that's because I scratch the hell out of em and they end up dry as shit.

Do you scratch your eyes often/vigorously? It might be the problem.

Every site I found said that irritating them causes skin damage :v

Oh okay sure I'll just go stick a burning needle in my eye. Though I may end up trying this

The burning needle sounds like the most fun and effective idea.

Lol, I have a few too.

My doctor said to smother honey on them, and then use a needle to prise them out.

I don't think mine would be easy to squeeze out, they seem very hard.

I have some around my eyes, a lot of people in my family do. I've never really gotten rid of them, but just washing my face keeps them from multiplying or getting bigger.

Why honey? And why do these soultions require you to stick a needle in your eye? I don't trust myself to hold a needle that close to my eyes

wait wait, like, these are those little bumps on the eyelid, right?

Ja, white bumps around the eyes
